About Me

I pretty much have had a love/hate feeling/relationship with every city/town I've ever lived (at least from around teenage years to now)...although the ratio of love:hate has varied from place to place. Here are the ratios: Chicago, IL: 87:13. Carrboro/Chapel Hill, NC: 70:30. Columbia, MO: 62:38. St. Louis, MO: 50:50. Raleigh, NC, Annandale, VA, and Ann Arbor, MI don't count since I was just a kid.

De La Christmas

I finished my Christmas shopping today when I bought a few CDs at Battery Records in Roscoe Village. This store reminds me a bit of CD Alley back in Chapel Hill, except their music selection is much smaller and a little bit more expensive. Their DVD selection, however, is much better. And their owner is very friendly like Sean at CD Alley.

The other day I did a little shopping at Dusty Groove and shopping next to me were Maseo and Posdnuos of De La Soul. I think they might have had a show at the House of Blues this week.

I heard Common came into the store last year and bought thousands of dollars worth of stuff. My friend Jamie, who works there, also told me that he serviced Caetono Veloso a couple of years ago. By that I don't mean serviced sexually, you perverts.
